Rabbi Akiva vs Chachamim on ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”

Gemara here in ืฉื‘ืช ื“ืฃ ื“ ืขืžื•ื“ ื, going into ื“ืฃ ื“ ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘, we have at least one of the ways the Gemara explains a certain machloket between Rabbi Akiva and the Chachamim is whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. This is the case where the Mishnah says if someone threw something ืžืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ืœืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, ืžืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ืœืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ื•ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ื‘ืืžืฆืข, he threw something from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and it landed in another ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, and the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื was in between, ืจื‘ื™ ืขืงื™ื‘ื ืžื—ื™ื™ื‘ ื•ื—ื›ืžื™ื ืคื•ื˜ืจื™ืŸ. Rabbi Akiva says you're chayav, the Chachamim says you're patur, and the Gemara explains one of the ways is Rabbi Akiva holds ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, and the Rabbanan say ืœื ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. What does that mean? Rabbi Akiva holds ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that when something comes into the airspace, it's as if it stopped there, and therefore if you throw something from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and it goes through the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and it didn't stop there, and it continued to the another ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, but because it came into the airspace of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, it's as if it stops. So ืœืคื™ ื–ื”, you made an ืขืงื™ืจื” in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, you threw it from the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and it came into the airspace of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it's ื›ืื™ืœื• it stopped. So ืœืคื•ืขืœ, you made an ืขืงื™ืจื” in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and an ื”ื ื—ื” in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, so you're chayav. The Chachamim say you're patur, they say ืœื ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” ื“ืžื™ื. No, if it comes in the airspace is not enough for it to be considered like it stopped, ื•ืžืžื™ืœื you did not make an ืขืงื™ืจื” in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and an ื”ื ื—ื” in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื because it didn't stop in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Where did it actually stop? In the second ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. So it's from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, so you're not chayav. That's one of the ways the Gemara explains here. Then the

Second approach: universal acceptance of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”

Gemara has another way to explain the machloket, but the way the Gemara puts it, that according to the second way, everyone holds ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. The Rabbanan also, but the machloket is in something else, ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. But according to the second way, everybody holds that when it comes into the space there, it's ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. But the first way is that there's a machloket between Rabbi Akiva and the chachamim, and that's the way it seems that he was ืคื•ืฉื˜, that the machloket between Rabbi Akiva and the chachamim is whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. So we have one thing here in the Gemara, a machloket between Rabbi Akiva and the chachamim, Rabbi Akiva says ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” ื“ืžื™ื, and the chachamim say we don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Tosafot, in Tosafot here ื‘ื“\"ื” ืœื ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ, the second tirutz, not to go into the kashya and everything, but the second tirutz, Tosafot says that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, if you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, it's a setirah, it's a contradiction to be able to say ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜ means that the din of ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, special din, amongst the issurim of carrying on Shabbat, there is a melachah called ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. It's all a ืชื•ืœื“ื” of ื”ื•ืฆืื”, but it's ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, that if you pick something up in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and you pass it, you don't throw it, you pass it over the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, put it down in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, you are chayav.

Introducing the ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜ dilemma and throwing vs passing

What about if you throw it? So the Gemara says there there're two sevarot. There's a ืกื‘ืจื ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, that we learn out ื–ื•ืจืง from ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. Just like if you pick it up in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and you pass it over ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื into the next ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, you're chayav, because that's how it was in the Mishkan, if you throw it is exact same way. And another man d'amar says not. The Mishkan had ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, so ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜ you're chayav. If you throw it, you're not chayav. Zagt Tosafot, these two, ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜ and ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, don't fit together. Why? Because ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, the original din of ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜ is ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•\"ื“. You carried it, you you carried it, you held held it, and you passed it from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ over the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื into the next ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, but it's ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•\"ื“, higher than ten tefachim. Higher than ten tefachim normally in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, higher than ten tefachim is a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. So when you passed it from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ over the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•\"ื“ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, you passed over a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. Nevertheless, we learn out from the Mishkan that you're chayav. But if you throw it from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ over ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•\"ื“, you threw it over a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. If you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that means that where going when it comes into the airspace, it landed, it stopped. So if you throw it from a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ over ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•\"ื“ of the of their ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, so it landed, it stopped in the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. So it's not like ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, when you pick it up in a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ and you pass it over ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, even though it went over the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, but it didn't stop there. So here you're chayav. But if you throw it, it stopped in the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. How could you be chayav? So Tosafot says, you can't work these two together. The only way you could learn ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, that we learn out ื–ื•ืจืง from ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, and if you throw it over from a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื over the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, over the ten tefachim higher than the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, you should be chayav, is if we don't hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. We don't hold that it stopped in the middle, then it's exactly like ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜. It went from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ over the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, but it didn't stop there. But if you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that means it stopped there. So Tosafot says you can't have both together. Because if you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” and therefore you're chayav by coming into the airspace, in the case of ืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, if it's like ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, you should be patur, because the same logic that it stopped, in this case it makes it patur, because it stopped in the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. Comes the Tosafot Yeshanim, and Tosafot Yeshanim says, \"No. It's no re'ayah from there. You could hold ื™ืœืคื™ื ืŸ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜, and you can hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Ai, it stopped in the middle, we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, it stopped in the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, and me'meila it should take away the issur?\" So he says, \"ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” we only say l'hachmir, not l'hakel. We only say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” that it stopped if that stopping will make you chayav. But if you're going to say it stopped and because of that stopping it will make you patur, we don't say it.\" And me'meila, you can't tell me that if you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” and you throw it over the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, over the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, you should be patur because of ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” can't make you patur. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” can make you chayav, but not make you patur. And he

Re'iyah on ืงืœื•ื˜ื” causing ืคื˜ื•ืจ in ื“' ืืžื•ืช case

brings a re'iyah: If you're saying ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” makes you patur also, how in the world is there such a thing as throwing ื“' ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? We know that one of the melachot is, you pick something up in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื and you throw it and it goes four ืืžื•ืช, and then it falls in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. So there's an akirah and an hanachah in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and ื“' ืืžื•ืช you're chayav. How could you be chayav? If you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, when it came into the air, it stopped. Imagine you carry something ื“' ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, but you stop every amah. You walk and you stop, you walk and you You shouldn't be chayav, because it's not You're only chayav if you have ื“' ืืžื•ืช in a row, but if you stopped in the middle, not. If you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that means that when you throw it, it stopped. So how is there ever a possibility of being chayav for throwing ื“' ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? Ela mai, we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, those that say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” hold of ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, but not ืœืคื˜ื•ืจ. By the ื“' ืืžื•ืช, if you'll say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, it means that you won't be chayav. We don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” in order to patur you. So we have a machloket here between Tosafos and the Tosafos Yeshanim. Tosafos says that we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ even to patur you, and that's why Tosafos says that if it flew over, if you threw something from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ to ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ over the ืžืงื•ื through the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, you can't be chayav, because ืงืœื•ื˜ื” will make you patur. Since it stopped in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, you'll be patur. So Tosafos learns you could say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” even to make you patur. And the Tosafos Yeshanim says, \"No. You don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” to make you patur.\" Now,

Tosafot Yeshanim's challenge to Tosafot's ruling

according to Tosafos, what do we do with Tosafos Yeshanim's kashya? Tosafos Yeshanim asked a good she'eilah: If you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” ืืคื™ืœื• to make you patur, how could you ever be chayav for throwing ื“' ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? So Tosafos answered that already. Not here, Tosafos later on on ื“ืฃ ื”' ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘', Tosafos asked the, and on ื”' ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘', yeah, Tosafos asked this shaila. You coming back? Tosafos asked this shaila. Tosafos answers that the Gemara says that ื“' ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื is halacha l'Moshe miSinai, a special din, ein hachi nami. Normally you could say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. By ื“' ืืžื•ืช, the Torah made a special din that you're chayav, halacha l'Moshe miSinai made you not patur, mimela you're chayav. He says, \"ื›ืขื™ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื“ืจื‘ื™ ืขืงื™ื‘ื, ืืฃ ืขืœ ื’ื‘ ื“ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” ื“ืžื™ื, ื‘ื–ื•ืจืง ื“' ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ื—ื™ื™ื‘, ื•ืœื ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” ืชื•ืš ื“' ืืžื•ืช.\" We don't say ื”ื•ื ื—ื”. ืื™ื™, normally we say Coming back. Even though normally we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, but here we don't say it, it's halacha l'Moshe miSinai. But the bottom line is that we have a machlokes here that the Tosafos Yeshanim says that we don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœื”ืงืœ, because we're saying ืงืœื•ื˜ื” as if it stopped, mimela you should not be chayav chayav because of that, that we don't say. And Tosafos says we say, if you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. 'Kay. So we have two things so far. One is a general machlokes whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Rabbi Akiva says we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. If you throw something and it comes into the air, it's as if it stopped. Rabbanan say we do not say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. The second machlokes we have in that ื’ื•ืคื, ืžื—ืœื•ืงืช between Tosafos and Tosafos Yeshanim. Tosafos says we say if we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, we say it all the way. We say it in every case. Wherever it comes into the air, we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. If that'll make you chayav, you say chayav. If that'll make you patur, you're patur. And the Tosafot Yeshanim says no, you only say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” if it makes you chayav, but to make ืงืœื•ื˜ื” make you patur we don't say. So number one, we have to understand the first thing: What's the sevara of the machloket whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” or not? Or better said, it's not a she'elah what is the sevara of the machloket, what's the sevara of Rabbi Akiva? Why in the world should we say something that's flying in the air, we say it like it stopped? Where in the world do we get this from? Flying in the air, it's not stopping. So the Rabbanan we understand, ืœื ืืžืจื™ื ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, we don't say flying in the air is stopped. But Rabbi Akiva says yes. Why would Rabbi Akiva say that? What's the logic behind saying that that's stopped in the is flying in the air as if it's stopped? That's one she'elah. Now, there are some that want to explain that the machloket of Rabbi Akiva and the Chachamim whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is connected to the Tosafot on ื“ืฃ ื–'. Tosafot on ื“ืฃ ื–', the Gemara there talks about a case like this: If somebody threw something, use this paper for this, potatoes, if someone had a ืœื‘ื™ื ื”, someone was standing in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, picked something up and threw it, and it landed on, got stuck to the wall. There was a wall under ten ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, because if it was higher than ten ื˜ืคื—ื™ื it's not in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it didn't land in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, because ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื goes only up to ten. But you threw it and it landed on the wall. So, it says you're chayav. Why are you chayav? Because you picked it up, you threw ื“' ืืžื•ืช in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, so you made ืขืงื™ืจื”, stopped here as it's in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, sticking out, it's in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, so you're chayav. The question is, if it fell on this, if it landed at which is called ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it stopped, okay, but on what did it land? On the air! It got stuck to the wall, but why is it This is the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื and it landed here, but at the bottom, what's the bottom of this ื—ืคืฅ? A sticky thing, you stuck a sticky, it landed, but at the bottom of it is air. How could you be chayav when the din is that it's only chayav if you make a hanachah on a ืžืงื•ื ื“'? Hanachah has to be in a place of ื“'. If you threw a ball and the ball this is this floor, and the ball landed here and the sticky ball and it got stuck to the wall, so it landed in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, but it's not it's not on a ืžืงื•ื ื“'. So how are you chayav? So Tosafos brings a machloket between the Rabbeinu Tam and the Riva. So Rabbeinu Tam says, \"You know what? You know when you're chayav? If this is ื“' ืขืœ ื“'.\" Even though this is a wall, it didn't land like this, on top, because if it landed on top it would be a different din. It landed like this, so it landed in the ืื•ื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. This. Huh? No, ืœืžื˜ื” ืž-ื™'. But this part, let's say ืœืžื˜ื” ืž-ื™', this is ืœืžื˜ื” ืž-ื™', this part, this wall has to be four by four, and since it landed on the wall, it's considered it landed on four by four, even though where did it land in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื which is air, but nevertheless this ื“' ืขืœ ื“' makes it so that it landed on ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. The Riva says, \"No, it doesn't have to be ื“' ืขืœ ื“', even if it's less than ื“' ืขืœ ื“'.\" But what? Since it landed in the air, it's ืจื•ืื” ืคื ื™ ื”ืงืจืงืข. This this thing that landed is looking down and is over the ground, so it's as if it landed on the ground. These are the words of Tosafos. The first status in ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช says, ืื•ืžืจ ืจื‘ื™ื ื• ืชื ื“ืื ื ื— ืœืžืขืœื” ืžืฉ- ืฆืจื™ืš ืฉื™ื”ื™ื” ื‘ืคื ื™ื” ืืจื‘ืข ืขืœ ืืจื‘ืข, has to be ื“' ืขืœ ื“' on the face here. And then the ืจื™ื‘\"ื ืื•ืžืจ, ืคื™ืจืฉ ื“ืืฃ ืขืœ ืคื™ ืœื ื‘ืขื™ ืฉื™ื”ื™ื” ื‘ืคื ื™ ื”ืœื‘ื ื” ื‘ื›ื•ืชืœ ื“' ืขืœ ื“', you don't have to have it, ื“ื›ื™ื•ื•ืŸ ืฉืจื•ืื” ืืช ื”ืงืจืงืข ื—ืฉื™ื‘ ื›ืžื•ื ื— ืขืœ ื’ื‘ื™ ืงืจืงืข. Since it's ืจื•ืื” ืคื ื™ ื”ืงืจืงืข, it's like it landed on the ืงืจืงืข, like it's on the ืงืจืงืข, and if it lands on the floor, there's no such thing as ื“' ืขืœ ื“', the floor is the reshut harabim. How else did it land? It got stuck, otherwise it would just fly off. It must have been, the Gemara says, ื“ื‘ื™ืœื” ืฉืžื ื”, a thick, a fat fig, a date, which landed or got stuck. You took gum, no, a guy had a big piece of gum, and he threw it, and it landed. Or the ball had a little bit of glue on it, and it landed. So here we have a machloket. According to the first ืคืฉื˜, Rabbeinu Tam, we say that it landed, and it's chayav, but this needs to be ื“' ืขืœ ื“' here. Why? ืื™ ืจื•ืื” ืคื ื™ ื”ืงืจืงืข? So Rabbeinu Tam holds that doesn't help you. The fact that it sees the ground doesn't help you. ืืœื ืžืื™, what? It has to ืžืžืฉ, it landed on this. So this has to be ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. And the Riva says, no, we look at it as if it landed on the ground. So they want to say that this is basically the machloket between Rabbi Akiva and the chachamim. Rabbi Akiva says that since it's ืจื•ืื” ืคื ื™ ื”ืงืจืงืข, since it sees the ground, it's as if it landed on the ground. So when it goes through the air space, and there the air is over the ground, it was if it landed on the ground. And the chachamim say, we don't say such a thing. We don't say it's as if it landed on the ground, because we don't look at it as ืจื•ืื” ืคื ื™ ื”ืงืจืงืข. Seeing the ground doesn't help it. Mimela, it didn't land. So this is one of the ways they explain the machloket, which is hard to say ืžื›ืžื” ื˜ืขืžื™ื, and it's not exactly the same thing. I don't want to just spend time on saying why it's not exactly the same thing. But what I'm trying to say is, back to the she'eilah, what is the sevara of the machloket whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” or not? In other words, even if you didn't chap all the details I said, still could continue listening. The she'eilah is a very simple she'eilah: Rabbi Akiva holds ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. It's flying in the air, it's like it stopped. Sounds like a joke! What what do you mean, stopped? It didn't stop! You know, ืขื™ื ื™ื ื• ื”ืจื•ืื•ืช in the ma'aseh that it stopped, it did not stop! So why is it called a hanachah? Then we have to understand the second machloket, machloket between Tosafot and the Tosafot Yeshanim. And here again, you have to Tosafot is not hard to understand. Tosafot says that if you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” for whatever reason, it's as if it stopped, whatever it is. If because it stopped you're chayav, you'll be chayav. If because it stopped it'll make you patur, you'll be ืคื˜ื•ืจ. If it stopped, then it should be the same thing ืœื—ื•ืžืจื or ืœืงื•ืœื. What's the sevara of the Tosafos Yeshanim that when do we say the sevara that in the air it stopped, if that will make you ื—ื™ื™ื‘, ืœื”ื—ืžื™ืจ. But if it will make you ืคื˜ื•ืจ, we don't say it. What what's the logic here? Then there's another thing here. The

Ramban and Rashi on ืงืœื•ื˜ื” above ื™"ื“ height

Ramban says on this Tosafos, Tosafos said that if it flies through the ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' and you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, it should make you ืคื˜ื•ืจ, because it stopped in the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. The Ramban says ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' we don't say we don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. Also argues on Tosafos, but he says we don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™'. If it goes ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' we don't say even if you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, but it's only in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. In the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ we will not say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, because it's a separate ืจืฉื•ืช. And from Rashi is ืžืฉืžืข the same way. Which Rashi? So if we look at the Rashi, it's ื›ื“ืื™ to look inside, we look at the Rashi. Rashi says on ื“ืฃ ื“' ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘', the first Rashi on ื“ืฃ ื“' ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘', Rashi says that the machloket is ื‘ื ื•ื’ืข between Rabbi Akiva and the ื—ื›ืžื™ื is ืœืžื˜ื” ืžื™'. The machloket is whether we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” if it went ืœืžื˜ื” ืžื™'. Because ืื™ืœื• ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™', if it be higher than ื™', ืœืื• ืื•ื™ืจ ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ื”ื•ื, ืืœื ืื•ื™ืจ ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ ื”ื•ื. Not it's the ืื•ื™ืจ ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' is ืื•ื™ืจ ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. And then if I would write the Rashi, I would write it like this: and if it be ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™', you couldn't say chayav. Why couldn't say chayav? Even ืœืžื˜ื” ืžื™' you say chayav because ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, as if it stopped in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' you wouldn't be chayav, what would you say why? Because it stopped in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ! So you shouldn't be chayav. That's not what Rashi says! Because in ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' ืืคื™ืœื• ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœื™ื›ื! There is no ืงืœื•ื˜ื”! What do you mean there's no ืงืœื•ื˜ื”? We don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™', why not? It should say we say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, but you're patur. Well, the bottom line would be the same, that the Gemara is telling you ืœืžื˜ื” ืžื™' because of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” you're chayav, ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' even if you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื” you're patur, why? Because it stopped in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. Rashi doesn't use those words. Rashi says ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™' there is no ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. Why is there no ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœืžืขืœื”? If if if whatever the logic is, if you say something that flies in the air, it's considered it stopped, wherever it flies it stopped! The difference is, what is that place? Is that place a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, you're chayav. If the place is a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, you're patur. But why did Rashi also say ืืคื™ืœื• ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœื™ืช ืœื™ื”? So Rashi is telling you that there is no ื“ื™ืŸ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ื“, which is like the Ramban. Question is, why? So we, if you remember now we

Summary of the three central questions

have three she'elot here, not not kushiyot, three things that we're trying to understand: What's the machloket, what's the sevara of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”? And and after we know what the sevara is, what's the other sevara and not? What's the sevara of the machloket between the Tosafot, Tosafot ื™ืฉื ื™ื? Why does Tosafot Yeshanim say that we only say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ืœื”ื—ืžื™ืจ, not ืœื”ืงืœ? And what's the sevara of the Ramban and Rashi that ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, even if you hold ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, it doesn't apply in a in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ? Only in the only in a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, in a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ you won't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. If you say it stopped, it stopped wherever it is. So, to understand this, so, number one, I want to give just like a hakdamah. And anybody who heard from some shiurim, will know that this is standard. Any time we find in the Gemara something, one thing is like something else even though it isn't, we right away have three ways of learning it, which basically is the two main ways and then there's one in the middle. Best place is, nu, you know already from shlichut. ืฉืœื•ื—ื• ืฉืœ ืื“ื ื›ืžื•ืชื•. ื›ืžื•ืชื•, the ืฉืœื™ื— is like the ืžืฉืœื—. The ืฉืœื™ื— is not the ืžืฉืœื—. The ืžืฉืœื— is Reuven, the ืฉืœื™ื— is Shimon. It's a different name, he looks differently, he's a different person. Nevertheless, the Torah says that ืฉืœื™ื— is like the ืžืฉืœื—. So, we have basically the two ways. There are three ways, but basically the two. One is, yes, the Torah is ืžื—ื“ืฉ that the ืฉืœื™ื— becomes the ืžืฉืœื—. The second way is that the Torah is

Shaliach vs. Meshalach: The Extreme Cases

not ืžื—ื“ืฉ ืฉืœื™ื—, the there's a third way, but the other extreme, the ืฉืœื™ื— is not the ืžืฉืœื—, nothing. The Torah says that even though he's not the ืžืฉืœื—, the din is like is as if he would be the ืžืฉืœื—. And this is a she'elah that, and for this sevara, every time we have so, two things that one is like the other, there's always this shaila. We always say this. In one of the sefarim, Shaarei Yeshiva Gedolah I have a list, a random list of 35 places, 35, 35 Likutei Sichos, where the Rebbe in different inyanim has this shaila in different things, which one thing is not. Just to give you an example: ืชื•ืกืคืช ืฉื‘ืช, time before Shabbos where you add. It's not Shabbos, it becomes like Shabbos. Nu, which way is it? Does it become really Shabbos or it's not really Shabbos? You have anything that you have. Or we learned in Kiddushin: ืฉื•ื” ื›ืกืฃ ื›ื›ืกืฃ, what is the pshat? ื˜ืขื ื›ืขื™ืงืจ. All over, we have. Is it does it become like that, or the Torah says ืืฃ ืขืœ ืคื™ it's not, it's not? That's the taytsh ื›... For example, you know, like a sefer has a shaila: when like this, in order to be chayav to eat treifah food, you have to eat a kezayit. But if you eat a whole a whole insect, which is a ื’ืื ืฆืข ื‘ืจื™ื”, you're chayav even if it's small. So he has a shaila: is the pshat this becomes like a kezayit, or even though it's not a kezayit, you're still chayav? It's the same shaila that he has. The same you can have in everything. When we say ืฉื ื™ ื“ื‘ืจื™ื ืื™ื ืŸ ื‘ืจืฉื•ืชื• ืฉืœ ืื“ื ื•ื”ืชื•ืจื” ืขืฉืชื” ื›ืื™ืœื• ื‘ืจืฉื•ืชื•, ื—ืžืฅ ื‘ืคืกื— and ื‘ื•ืจ ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it's not yours, but it's like yours. Does it become yours or not yours? You could go on and on in so many things what this is. And this is this is one of those things: ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. So you

Two Interpretations of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”

have two ways: you could say the pshat is that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is ื”ื•ื ื—ื”. And you could say a different way: ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is not ื”ื•ื ื—ื”, it has the same din as ื”ื•ื ื—ื”. And I'll tell put it in different words, and I'll say the the basis behind it I'll say soon. But while I'm looking around, the two guys that walked out, I didn't see them come back yet. They said they're coming back, but they're not back yet. Oh, someone said, 'Wait, wait.' No, like I said, I see that the shiur right in the beginning gives a person shilshul, so you never know, you know. What's the nafka minah? What's the nafka minah if they come back or not? Oh, that's that's a big nafka minah. The nafka mina is if they stayed by the shiur or didn't stay at shiur, that's the ื ืคืงื ืžื™ื ื” ืœืคื•ืขืœ. Okay, right, but I didn't I didn't say anything yet. This is just like a hakdamah. In other words, if you say, let's say ื›ืžื•ืชื• ืžืžืฉ, that means to do something you have to do it yourself. To ืžืงื“ืฉ ืืฉื”, you have to be ืžืงื“ืฉ ืืฉื”. If you say the shaliach could do it and he's ื›ืžื•ืชื• ืžืžืฉ, that means that you have whatever positive thing you need for for him to do, that the shaliach becomes that. The other way is the pshat it's not chiyuv, it's ืฉืœื™ืœื”. You know what ืฉืœื™ืœื” means? There is a problem if you if the guy himself doesn't do it, there's a problem. Comes the Torah and says that if you make the guy into a shaliach, the Torah doesn't care if there's a problem. The Torah takes away the problem. If a person, Reuven wants to ืžืงื“ืฉ a ืืฉื”, he has to ืžืงื“ืฉ a ืืฉื”. If someone else goes and is ืžืงื“ืฉ a ืืฉื” for him, you don't have him. But if you make him into a shaliach, the Torah says we don't care if you don't have him, that's the second way. It's takeh not him, but if you made him into a shaliach, the Torah says we don't care if it's not him. The first way is no, the Torah cares, it has to be him, but the Torah says it became him. So the first way is that it becomes that thing ืžืžืฉ ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™, in a positive way, and the other way, a shaliach takes away the chesaron. If you don't have the man, you don't have it, but there's a chesaron if you don't have it, and it takes away. The same thing we're going to say here, that there are two ways to learn, but you have to have a basis for each way, it's not you could say a pshat which makes no sense and it's a mai nafka mina. But there are two ways, and then I will explain why. One way is, as I would explain, that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is ื”ื•ื ื—ื”. The Torah says, yes, the Chachamim say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” becomes ื”ื•ื ื—ื”. That's like the first way, ืฉืœื•ื—ื• ืฉืœ ืื“ื ื›ืžื•ืชื• ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™. And the other way we'll see is, no, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” doesn't mean that as if it stopped. What does it mean? Now I'll explain why, but I'll say what does it mean? It means if it didn't stop, you got a problem. If it didn't stop, you didn't have a ื”ื ื—ื”, so there's something missing. Comes the ื”ื”ืœื›ื” and says ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” that it's not missing, we don't care if it didn't stop. See the vort? It's not ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” I still don't I don't explain why, but you'll see that soon. But this way is a ืฉื™ื™ื ืข ืคืฉื˜. Not that ืคืฉื˜ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is taytsh it stopped. That's pretty weird, it's in the air and it stopped? No, it takeh didn't stop. But it has the same din as if it would have stopped. In other words, we don't care that there's a problem that it didn't stop. Normally, if you make an ืขืงื™ืจื”, and you don't have a ื”ื ื—ื”, there's a problem. You're missing a ื”ื ื—ื”. Here ืงืœื•ื˜ื” does is not missing a ื”ื ื—ื”, that's why it's ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Not that it's like it stopped. There's nothing wrong if it didn't stop, just like if it would have stopped you would have been ื—ื™ื™ื‘, in this case if it didn't stop you're still ื—ื™ื™ื‘. Now let's understand the two ways, why would it be one way, what would be the other? So let's start from the second way. To explain why is it the How could you say a ืคืฉื˜? If we could get to such a ืคืฉื˜, that would be the best, because to explain ืงืœื•ื˜ื” as if it stopped, it's it's funny. It's in the it's flying in the air and it stopped, so fantastical such as a fantasy, where did you get this from? If you can explain the second way, ื˜ืืงืข ืžืคื•ืจืฉ didn't stop. But the Torah says has the same din as if it would have stopped, because we don't care it didn't, why? So let's first get to understand why do we keep an ืขืงื™ืจื” and a ื”ื ื—ื”? Obviously, if you want this is a ื“ืจืš ื”ืœื™ืžื•ื“ ื‘ื›ืœืœ if you think, you want to explain is it like it stopped or not, let's see what ื”ื ื—ื” then, if you know what ื”ื ื—ื” is, then we know if it stopped or not, this. So we've been going on for on and on from the beginning of the year till now that what's the ืขื ื™ืŸ of ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื”? By a hotza'ah is a ืžืœืื›ื” ื’ืจื•ืขื”. Hotza'ah is a problem. Hotza'ah is missing the real quality of a of a melachah, because there is no change. Nevertheless, it's ื—ื™ื™ื‘, and it's a melachah. Why is it a melachah? Sof kol sof, there is no change, so what do we say, why is there ื”ื ื—ื”, why is there a melachah? ืื™ืš ืžืฉื ื” is by ื“' ืืžื•ืช. So I explained many times that's why we need an ืขืงื™ืจื” and a ื”ื ื—ื”. ืขืงื™ืจื” means something is laying, it's not just laying there, it's ืžื•ืฉืจืฉ. When you pick it up, you're uprooting it from its place, from its ืจืฉื•ืช. You're taking it out, so you're taking it away from that ืจืฉื•ืช and you're putting it into next ืจืฉื•ืช. And then when you put it down, you are ืžืฉืจื™ืฉ it again k'vayachol, you're putting it down again into another ืจืฉื•ืช, u'memila ke'ilu there is a change. That's what we've been saying in the inyan of ืขืงื™ืจื” and ื”ื ื—ื”. Lichorah, you could ask a she'eilah on this:

Why Both Akirah and Hanacha Are Required

why do we need ื”ื ื—ื” also? Why is it not enough if you do an ืขืงื™ืจื”? If the whole purpose is to make that change, the moment you pick it up from ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, and you're uprooting it, and you're taking it out of the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, and you're bringing it into the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it's already a change. Why is that not good enough? If the whole thing is a change, why do you have to have it double, from ืขืงื™ืจื” from here and putting it down in the other ืจืฉื•ืช? Lichorah, the ืขืงื™ืจื” itself should be good enough, because you are doing something: you're taking it away from the ืจืฉื•ืช and you're putting it into another ืจืฉื•ืช, so you weren't ืžืฉืจื™ืฉ it in another ืจืฉื•ืช, but there's definitely a change. Imagine b'gashmiyut if it would be. B'gashmiyut, if it would be planted, and you tear it out, it's a melachah. So here, the ื”ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, I wouldn't say the word ื’ืจื•ืข, the ื”ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, you also making a change. So lichorah, when you make the ืขืงื™ืจื”, and you take it out into the next ืจืฉื•ืช, Enough! The moment it comes in the next ืจืฉื•ืช, you should be chayav. Why do you need the ื”ื ื—ื”? So, I'm going to explain a possible sevara. Since you picked it up with your hand from the first ืจืฉื•ืช, so when it's in the first ืจืฉื•ืช, it's in your hand, and now you're taking it out to the other ืจืฉื•ืช, and it's still in your hand. So mimila, ke'ilu it never really left the first ืจืฉื•ืช, because when you picked it up in that first ืจืฉื•ืช, and it came into your hand, it was still in the first ืจืฉื•ืช, and now it's still in your hand. It's ื›ืื™ืœื• ื ื™ืžื there is still a ื”ืžืฉืš to what you did in the beginning, and you didn't let it go. When you put it down and you take your hand away, and you put it down, so now you have a full-fledged change. But here, if you picked it up, and when you picked it up it was in your hand, and it was still in the first ืจืฉื•ืช, and you continued, it didn't really leave. Al derech I give you a dugma, everything is a dugma, an example, by a get. What's the din by a get? If a person has a string attached to a get, and he throws the get to the woman, and she holds the get and he holds the string, and it's not going to rip, I mean and you can pull it back, so what's the din? She's not divorced. Why? The Gemara says. But what's the what's the ื—ืกืจื•ืŸ? It's not called ื ืชื™ื ื”, not full ื ืชื™ื ื”. No, it's called ื ืชื™ื ื”, not called ื›ืจื™ืชื•ืช. By a get it says it has to be cut off. You didn't cut off. ื’ื she got the get, but you didn't cut off. Why didn't you cut off? Because there are strings attached. There's a string that's attached, and you never let go of it 100%. Why? Because you had it in your hand, and you still have it a little bit in your hand, even though you gave away the get. I'm just using this as an example, that's a halacha in ื”ืœื›ื•ืช ื’ื™ื˜ื™ืŸ. But the lashon in the Gemara is it's not called cut off. It never left you 100%. So when you pick up a object, so even though you picked it up and you were oker it, but you oker it and it's in your hand. So now it's in the first ืจืฉื•ืช still, never left the first ืจืฉื•ืช, it's in your hand. And the position of it being in your hand you're continuing, and it's still in your hand. So in order for it to be a full-fledged change, you have to put it down. Okay? Oh, one second. We'll we'll get to that in a second. Oh, yeah? Okay. I don't know how to play chess, but that sounds good, sounds like a good mashal, yeah. Lefi zeh, the only reason you need a hanacha is not because you need a hanacha. You need hanacha only because without a hanacha there is something missing. Akira we said you need to have an akira. Hanacha, all you need is that if not, it never really left the first ืจืฉื•ืช. Lefi zeh, what happens if you throw it? So it left your hand. If it left your hand, you takeh don't need a hanacha. So the akira and the

Hand Holding and the Need for Hanacha

going to the other ืจืฉื•ืช should be enough to be chayav. You don't need a hanacha, because you don't really need a hanacha. You just need a hanacha in order to take away the problem of it being in your hand. But in this case, you have no problem because it's not in your hand. And that could be the pshat in ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. The second way, not that it's hanachah. The second way we said ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” doesn't mean that it's like it stopped. It means that we don't care it didn't stop. You're ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืืฃ ืขืœ ืคื™ we don't ืืฃ ืขืœ ืคื™ it didn't stop. And that's the pshat, you could learn that way. So the fact that you picked it up, and you threw it from the you made a akirah in reshut hayachid and you threw it into reshut harabim, so the moment it came to reshut harabim after a regular akirah, you should be chayav right away! That's pshat ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. That's one way to learn ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that it's not because it made a hanachah. That's the second way, that it's taking away the ื—ืกืจื•ืŸ, but not, can we say, ืžืžืฉ, not that it's rested. Then we have the other way which I mentioned in the shiur, you can learn that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” means it really rested. ืื™ื™ it sounds pretty strange, so I explained a sevara, that when something goes, the she'eilah is how do we look at it? Be'emet, everything is made up of ื ืงื•ื“ื•ืช ื ืงื•ื“ื•ืช. Everything is made up of ืจืฆื•ื ื•ืฉื•ื‘. When it flies in the air, it's be'emet what's happening is, you can't see it, it stops every split-second, even less than that. You just can't see it, so it goes so fast that it looks like it's going. ืขืœ ื“ืจืš, it's not the same, ืขืœ ื“ืจืš like when a Azzai. What does Ben Azzai hold? ืžื”ืœืš ื›ืขื•ืžื“, that when a person walks every step he takes, even though he's walking, every step he takes is considered a hanachah. Why? Because walking means that I never stop, but that's made up of stopping. When you put your foot down as you go, you're stopping, but you're going so fast that you can't tell it's stopped. That's why I said it's only a dugma, it's not the same. Here, not exactly the same way, because here it's actually flying in the air. But flying in the air is made up of like that, because when you have a lot of dots moving on, it turns into one long, long stretch. I don't want to go into the more fantasies of it, like seven ืกื‘ืจื•ืช of you have He says in in Olam HaHigayon, when you have a ืฉื˜ื— it's made up of ื ืงื•ื“ื•ืช ื‘ื›ืœืœ, even when you walk. It has all kinds of things in ืฉื›ืœ to abstract thinking. But this way you're going to say like this: be'emet you need a hanachah. Every time that you're chayav you need a akirah and a hanachah, and ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. When it flies, it's like it stopped. When you're holding it in your hand, it's not, because it's in your hand. But if you throw it and it's flying in the air, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. By place is in the hand it's not like that. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. Now

Machloket: Rabbi Akiva vs. The Chachamim

let's go according to both ways, what would be the ืžื—ืœื•ืงืช between Rabbi Akiva and the Chachamim? So let's try to start first way. Rabbi Akiva holds ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. What does that mean, according to the first way? That the reason why you need a hanachah ื‘ื›ืœืœ, because otherwise there's a problem, it never really left the first reshut because it's still in your hand. So when you throw it and it's not in your hand, then it's enough. What would the Rabbanan hold? Maybe the Rabbanan hold not like that. The Rabbanan hold the second way. They hold that you need hanachah for hanachah, so flying in the air is not a hanachah, according to that way. Or you can say a little different. That according to this first way, the Rabbanan agree that you don't really need a hanachah. And the only reason you need a hanachah is because otherwise it's connected to before because it's still in your hand. And still they say we will not say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. You know why, you could say? Because we said the chesaron of the hand is because it's never really left the first place because it's still in your hand. When you throw it, we can look at the same way. How does this thing fly in the air? It has a ื›ื— ื”ื–ืจื™ืงื”. You put in the ื›ื— ื”ื–ืจื™ืงื” into the into the object. Like in chassidut, you put in your koach into it, and as long as the koach lasts, it flies, and when does it fall? When the koach wears off. So the Rabbanan will look at it and say that be'emet, just like when you carry it with your hand you need a hanachah, why? Because otherwise it's still connected to you, because it's still in your hand. If you threw it, it's the same problem. Rabbi Akiva says no, that if you threw it, it's already disconnected from you, u-memila you have a full-fledged melachah, a change: you picked it up, that's akirah, and you threw it, it left you, and it went into another reshut, that's enough to be chayav. And the fact that it's flying because you threw it is still disconnected. And the Rabbanan say, it's still called connected, u-memila you still need a real hanachah, and that is not enough. And you still need to take, not a real hanachah, you need to make sure that the connection is not there anymore, and that's only by putting it down. So according to the first way, back to this, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” means ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” that it's not really put down, but we don't care if it was not put down. According to the second way, what's the machloket between Rabbi Akiva and the Chachamim? Rabbi Akiva holds that when it's flying in the air, it's as if it's constantly stopping, u-memila there is hanachah. So the second way, everyone holds you need to have a ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™. This is a ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™, it actually stopped. ืื™ื™, the problem of ื“' ืขืœ ื“', so the Gemara taka says, according to Rabbi Akiva you don't need ื“' ืขืœ ื“'. That's the raaya. But it stopped. And the Chachamim, they say, well, in theory, in ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ it stopped, but ื‘ืคื•ืขืœ it didn't stop, and therefore the Chachamim say we do not say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”. If it's based on ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, yeah, but depends which ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ. There's a ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ of simple, like picking up and taking it, and then a ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ of something that's not ื ื™ื›ืจ at all. It's not No, you But what kind of ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ? In ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ you have many ื“ืจื’ื•ืช. You have very abstract and you have a little bit abstract. The fact that we say that picking it up is called taking it away from the ืฉื•ืจืฉ is a ืฉื˜ื™ืงืœ ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, but still you're picking it up from the ืจืฉื•ืช. This is such a far-fetched ื”ื™ื’ื™ื•ืŸ that you can say, this you say and this you don't. So

Tosafot Yeshanimโ€™s Two Views on ืงืœื•ื˜ื”

what I want to say is that the Tosafos Yeshanim will hold hold the first way and Tosafos would hold the second way. If you hold the first way, that what's the peshat ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, that you don't need the ื”ื ื—ื”, because it's not in your hand so there's no problem, so there is no ื”ื ื—ื” ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™ืช, there's nothing that you did as a ื”ื ื—ื”. And therefore it only works ืœื”ื—ืžื™ืจ ื•ืœื ืœื”ืงืœ. We understand why. It only works that if you had an ืขืงื™ืจื”, and you took it out, and you already had the ืฉื™ื ื•ื™ ืจืฉื•ืช, so normally you're still missing, here you're not missing anything. But a ื”ื ื—ื” is not a positive thing that happened here. By throwing in the air, the ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is not a positive thing that happening. To ืคื•ื˜ืจ you, you have to have a ื”ื ื—ื”. True, if you have a ื—ื™ื•ื‘ and we want to make you ืคื˜ื•ืจ from the ื—ื™ื•ื‘, there has to be something that you're doing to make you ืคื˜ื•ืจ. But what we're saying according to the first way, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” doesn't mean you made a ื”ื ื—ื”. ื‘ืคื™ืจื•ืฉ didn't do anything. ืืœื ืžืื™, there's a change in the ืจืฉื•ืช, the ืขืงื™ืจื” is good enough. So, if ืขืงื™ืจื” is good enough, you're ื—ื™ื™ื‘ for that ืขืงื™ืจื”. But in the case where we need the hanacha to make you patur, there is no hanacha according to the first way. There is no hanacha chiyuvit to say that when you did this you are patur, umimeila he says you can't, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” cannot make you patur. When can ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” make you patur? Means if something is chayav and you did something to take away the chiyuv. You did nothing. There's no So, the second way is Yeah, like that. The second Or we're saying that when it came into the air it's as if it landed, so you did a hanacha, when you do a hanacha you're taking away the chiyuv that's there. You could take away the chiyuv. So, it could make the chiyuv, it could break the chiyuv. But if you're saying it's not a real hanacha, ela mai? It's no problem, the chiyuv is there already, ื›ื™ the chiyuv is there already, so it doesn't take away the chiyuv. So, you're machmir because you don't need it. But if you want to use it to poter you, there you have to have something to do to take away the chiyuv, and that doesn't work. And this is the sevara, so we have like this: Where we asked the two she'elot, what is the difference, what's the machloket whether akirah, whether ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” or not? And the second she'eilah, what's the sevara of the machloket in Tosafot Yeshanim? Now we have it. The machloket Tosafot, Tosafot Yeshanim is what is the pshat of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”? That according to the Tosafot Yeshanim ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” doesn't mean there was a hanacha, but there wasn't, and we don't care, umimeila

When Does Klutah Apply Without a Hanacha?

when to poter you it doesn't work? ืžื” ืฉืื™ืŸ ื›ืŸ ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช learn ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” means that there was a hanacha, so it works for to poter you also, and therefore according to Tosafot it poter's you. Now ืœืคื™ ื–ื”, we understand the sevara of the Ramban and the sevara of Rashba, they learned like the Tosafot Yeshanim that ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” that's not because there was a ื”ื ื—ื”. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื” is because the fact that you picked it up and you threw it and it came into another ืจืฉื•ืช already is enough, you don't have to have a ื”ื ื—ื”. But that's only good if it came into another ืจืฉื•ืช, so the ืขืงื™ืจื” is good enough. What happens if it didn't come in another ืจืฉื•ืช? Then the ืขืงื™ืจื” is not good enough yet. In other words, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” means that the fact that it came into that other ืจืฉื•ืช is good enough. What happens if it came into a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ? Now, ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is not another ืจืฉื•ืช, ื•ืžืžื™ืœื there is no ืงืœื•ื˜ื” there. If you learn the other way like Tosafot, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, whatever flies in the air it stopped, so whatever it is, if it flies in the air of a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ it stops in the ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, and you're ืคื˜ื•ืจ because it's ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. But if you're saying, no, it didn't stop, ela mai, by ืงืœื•ื˜ื” you don't need the ื”ื ื—ื” because the change of ืจืฉื•ืช is good enough, there's no change of ืจืฉื•ืช here, because it came into a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. And that's what Tosafot Yeshanim and the Ramban learn that you don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” there. Not that you're ืคื˜ื•ืจ, you don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”, because the whole concept of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” doesn't apply, because it came to a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ which is not a ืจืฉื•ืช. And that's that's not so pashut.

Is a Place of Exemption a Reshut?

There is a ืฉืืœื” we have, and we spoke about it once before, is a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ a ืจืฉื•ืช or not? You remember we spoke about it? There are two ways to learn: You could say a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is a ืจืฉื•ืช, but a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืคื˜ื•ืจ, or you can say a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is not a ืจืฉื•ืช. Whichever way we're going to learn, it makes sense. If a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is not a ืจืฉื•ืช ื‘ื›ืœืœ, then adraba it makes sense that the only time you don't you say klutah when it came to another reshut and you don't need a hanachah. But in the case of where it came to a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, it didn't come to another reshut, because a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is not a reshut. So, therefore, we can't say klutah there. Not we can't say if you're patur because it's klutah in it stopped in the ืžืงื•ื It didn't stop because klutah never stops. Ela mai, it's enough? In this case, not enough. Afilu if you're going to learn that a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ is a reshut, ela mai, it's a reshut that's patur, also makes sense. When is it called a shinui by throwing it in the air? When it came from this reshut to an opposite reshut. Then it's a change. But if it comes from this reshut to a reshut that you're patur, it's not a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื•ืคื›ื™, so it's not a real change, so we don't say klutah. So whichever way we're going to learn in the geder of a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, but according to this, we will not say klutah in a case of a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, because there is no change. And klutah doesn't mean there is a hanachah, it doesn't mean it stopped, it means that there is, without stopping, there's a change. And there is no change, because there's no other reshut. Probably, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, mistama. ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ, a car is a ืžืงื•ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ ืžื“ืื•ืจื™ื™ืชื, yeah, yeah. Taka wouldn't say klutah. This is all according to the pshat of the way we're learning in Tosafot Yeshanim, which explains, Rav Walvel, Tosafot Yeshanim brings a rayah to this din that you don't say klutah lehakel. The rayah is

Tosafot Yeshanim on the Four-Amut Rule

from ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. It's the same thing over there. Why don't you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? Because there is no change. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is not pshat that it stopped. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” is the pshat that you picked it up and you you changed the ืจืฉื•ืช. When you pick up something ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and it goes into the ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื and it continues traveling for one ืืžื”, for two ืืžื•ืช, what kind of change is there? There's no change, how could you say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”? If you learn ืงืœื•ื˜ื” which means it stopped, then takeh you got a problem, ืงืœื•ื˜ื” you got a problem. After every ืืžื” or every half an ืืžื”, where it stops, so why are you chayav? So according to it's a problem. What's the answer? Halacha l'Moshe miSinai, Tosafos has no other answer. Takeh it's a problem. Mah she'ein kein according to the Tosafos Yeshanim, there's no problem, because there was no change. The whole thing of ืงืœื•ื˜ื” means that we don't need the hanacha because there's a change. The only time is a change is if it goes to another ืจืฉื•ืช. Going from in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื ื’ื•ืคื, you're picking it up and it's going like this, and it's all this, there's no change. So you're not so it doesn't do anything, there's no ืงืœื•ื˜ื” there. The only time it could be a change is if it goes more than ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช, so maybe takeh, maybe we'll say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. If you throw throw throw something ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื and it goes more than ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช, and it got burned in the air, takeh, maybe you're chayav, because it got into the air, it came a different ืจืฉื•ืช, it left and that's called in different ืจืฉื•ืช after ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช. The Baal Hamaor, the famous Baal Hamaor that it's considered like a different ืจืฉื•ืช, takeh chayav. So when the when the Tosafos Yeshanim brings a raaya, it's not just a a raaya from a ื–ืฒื˜ื™ื’ืข ื–ืืš that we see that ืœื”ืงืœ we don't say it, because over there, otherwise how is the ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช, ื–ืจื™ืงื” ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? It's more than that. The raaya is from the sechel there. Why ื˜ืืงืข is the din we don't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” by ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช, ื–ืจื™ืงื” ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื? Because there was not you can't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” doesn't mean that it landed. ืงืœื•ื˜ื” means that the fact that you did ืขืงื™ืจื” and you made a ืฉื™ื ื•ื™ ืจืฉื•ืช, that's enough. There was no ืฉื™ื ื•ื™ ืจืฉื•ืช here. Now, exact same thing here, Tosafos says ื‘ื ื•ื’ืข ืœืžืขืœื” ืž-, what does he say? ืœืžืขืœื” from ื™ืณ ื˜ืคื—ื™ื, there is he says you can't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. So he uses a lashon because it's ืœื”ืงืœ, it's not worth ืœื”ืงืœ, because you can't say ืงืœื•ื˜ื” there. And this how Rashi learns also, we could say that's why Rashi says that ืœืžืขืœื” ืžื™ื•ืดื“ there is no ืงืœื•ื˜ื”. The peirush how it comes out, always when it comes the last 10 minutes, I see the 10 minutes, it's it's not enough time to explain what like you know what to say, so I'll say it as I try to say it bekitzur. So it comes that there's a machloket between Rashi and Tosafos whether we really need a ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™ or ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ืฉืœื™ืœื™ is enough. According to Tosafos, you have to have a hanachah, because in order to have ืขืงื™ืจื” in order to have a ืฉื™ื ื•ื™, you have to pick it up and you have to put it down. According to Tosafot Yeshanim, the Rambam we're saying, according to Rashi, there's no din of hanachah that you must have hanachah. If you don't have hanachah, you got a problem. So it's hanachah that you've got to make sure that you don't have the missing hanachah, whatever you you're missing something you don't have. This will explain another machloket in Rashi and Tosafos, but this is later on, a shvere sugya in the Gemara. So all Shabbos is ืฉื•ื•ืขืจ, you know, you see the Gemara we're learning now ื“ืฃ ื“ืณ is ื“ืฃ ื“ืณ ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘ืณ is a ืฉื•ื•ืขืจืข ื’ืžืจื. Comes to ื“ืฃ ื—ืณ with ื›ื•ื•ืจืช, pretty hard over there. But there there is a machloket between Rashi and Tosafos. I

Beehive (Kooret) Example: Rashi vs Tosafos

mentioned in the shiur once before, you pick up a ื›ื•ื•ืจืช, a beehive, or the same can be any box which is 10 ื˜ืคื—ื™ื high and 4 ื˜ืคื—ื™ื wide, and you Pick it up and you throw it ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. Pick it up from the floor, and you throw it. So the Gemara says, if it's if it's complete, has this ืฉื™ืขื•ืจ, ืคื˜ื•ืจ. You are ืคื˜ื•ืจ. You're not ื—ื™ื™ื‘, even though you threw it ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. ื–ืื’ื˜ Rashi, why are you ืคื˜ื•ืจ? So Rashi says, because it's a ืจืฉื•ืช ืœืขืฆืžื•. Any box that's ten ื˜ืคื—ื™ื high and four by four, is a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, it's its own ืจืฉื•ืช. ื“ื’ืžืจื™ื ืŸ, ืžืžืฉื›ืŸ ื’ืžืจื™ื ืŸ ืฉื”ื™ื• ื–ื•ืจืงื™ื ืžื—ื˜ื™ื ื‘ืžืœืื›ืชื, ื•ืœื ื”ื™ื• ื–ื•ืจืงื™ื ืจืฉื•ื™ื•ืช. We don't find in the Mishkan that they threw ืจืฉื•ื™ื•ืช. A whole ืจืฉื•ืช they threw? So if you threw a ืจืฉื•ืช, you're ืคื˜ื•ืจ. That's what Rashi says. Comes Tosafos, Tosafos is a different ืคืฉื˜ why you're ืคื˜ื•ืจ if you threw it. Listen to this. This is, and this also, this Tosafos over there, ื“ื™ื‘ื•ืจ ื”ืžืชื—ื™ืœ ืจื—ื‘ื”, is a very ื”ื’ื™ื•ื ื“ื™ืงืข ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช, a Tosafos that deals with abstract thought thinking, ืคืืกื˜ ื ืืจ ืคืืจ ื ืงืืฆืงืขืจ ืื–ื ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช, ืฉื”ื›ื•ื•ืจืช ืขืฆืžื” ื ืขืฉื™ืช ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ืœื›ืฉืชื ื•ื—. If you pick up this ื›ื•ื•ืจืช, you're picking up a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. You're throwing it in the air, it flies ื“ืณ ืืžื•ืช ื‘ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, it lands. As it lands, it turns back into a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. See, when it's in the air, it's not a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. So it's flying in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. You started off with a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, you threw it in air of ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, and it landed. So, and mimela it is, ื“ื”ื•ื™ ื›ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ืœืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ื“ืจืš ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. And what's the din over there? ืคื˜ื•ืจ, ื›ื“ืืžืจ ืœืขื™ืœ, ื•ื›ื™ ื ื™ืœืฃ ื–ื•ืจืง ืžืžื•ืฉื™ื˜? So, ื•ืืคื™ืœื• ืœืจื‘ื™ ืขืงื™ื‘ื ื“ืืžืจ ืงืœื•ื˜ื” ื›ืžื™ ืฉื”ื•ื ื—ื”, ื”ื›ื ืคื˜ื•ืจ. Why? Because ื“ื›ืœ ืžืงื•ื ืฉื™ื ื•ื— ื”ืจื™ ื”ื•ื ื—ืฉื•ื‘ ื›ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. Because wherever it'll land, it'll be a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. So the reason you're patur, he says, because you threw a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ that started with ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, went through the air of ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, comes down, so it's ืžืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ืœืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ ื“ืจืš ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื. And Tosafos teitcht azoy, because ื•ื—ืฉื‘ื™ื ืŸ ื›ืื™ืœื• ื ื—ื” ืื—ืจ ืฉื ืขืฉื™ืช ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, ื“ื”ื ื—ื” happened ke'ilu after it became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. Follow? In the air it's not, then it fell down. As it landed, what are you chayav for? For when it makes an hanachah. When it makes the hanachah, as it lands, two things happen here: when it falls, it turns into a ืจืฉื•ืช. In the air? No, a ืจืฉื•ืช can't be, there's no flying ืจืฉื•ืช. A ืจืฉื•ืช is when something is standing in the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, has this shiur. So when it landed on the floor, it became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, and you did the hanachah. What came first? So Tosafos says, ื›ืื™ืœื• ื ื—ื” ืื—ืจ ืฉื ืขืฉื™ืช ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. ื“ื”ื ื—ื” that we want to make you chayav for is after it became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. Mimela, it started off ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, ื“ืขืงื™ืจื” was ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, went through ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, then it landed after it became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, so when when you did the hanachah, it already is a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ from before. Why? Why do we say it landed before It became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ before it landed? So mimela the hanachah you did was a hanachah in ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. There's two things we said here: the hanachah has to accomplish two things, make it into rules of a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. So we're saying like this: the hanacha that we want to make you chayav for came after it's a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, so mimalei you can't be chayav for that hanacha. But the hanacha to make it into a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, that came first. Why? What what's the logic here? It's a ืžืื“ื ืข ื–ืืš. You could say maybe ื’ื™ื˜ื” ื•ื™ื“ื” ื‘ืื™ืŸ ื›ืื—ื“, sometimes we have two things happen at the same time, but that doesn't apply here. You know, we're not going to get into the details, too late. But the she'eilah, what is the logic here? It's a feine shaila, it's mamash a ืžืื“ื ืข ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช. This, like I said, it's like a ืงืืฆืงืขืจื“ื™ืงืข type of thinking. It fell down and became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, two things happened: when it landed and it became ืžื•ื ื—, it's a reshut, and you're chayav for hanacha. You say no, first it became the reshut. Through what did it become a reshut? Through landing! So there was hanacha already! So there's an hanacha, it became a reshut, and then happens the hanacha to be chayav, and mimalei it came after it became a reshut, it can't be chayav, because you can't be chayav for ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. What's the logic? And I understand why Rashi doesn't learn like that, because it doesn't sound right. So Rashi learns a different thing, because they threw reshuyot and in in Mishkan they didn't throw reshuyot. So I want to explain like this: We just kept on saying the whole time that according to Tosafos, the hanacha does not have to be a real hanacha. No, wait, according to hanacha has to be a real hanacha, sorry, according to Rashi and the Tosafos Yeshanim, the only reason it's hanacha is because otherwise Otherwise you're missing something, you have a problem. According to Tosafos, you must have a ื”ื ื—ื” ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™. You must, in order to be chayav, it must land ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™, that makes the chiyuv. When we say that the hanacha makes it into a reshus, and makes it into mechitzos, for that you don't have to have ื”ื ื—ื” ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™ืช. For that, it's enough the fact that it's not not a hanacha. The re'iya from Tosafos is here, on ื“ืฃ ื–ืณ ืขืžื•ื“ ื‘ืณ, where Tosafos is ืžื—ืœืง between the mechitzos of a Sukkah and the mechitzos of Shabbos. And the way it comes out from Tosafos here, and Tosafos in Sukkah, that by Sukkah, you need mechitzos. To have a Sukkah, you need ืžื—ื™ืฆื•ืช, ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™. And by Shabbos, in order to make mechitzos for the reshus, you don't need it. It's only, here it doesn't say, in Sukkah Tosafos ืชื•ืกืคื•ืช says, ืœืžื ื•ืข ืจื’ืœ ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, that they shouldn't be people able to walk, not that you need mechitzos. So it comes out like this: that the fact to make it into ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, you don't need ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™, it should have a hanacha, it should have to become a mechitza, as long as it's not not a mechitza. To make the ื—ื™ื•ื‘ ื”ื ื—ื”, according to Tosafos, we said, you must have a hanacha. Not according to Rashi. According to Rashi, we say that's also something that you don't really need, it's just to take away the fact that it's with a hand. So that's what Tosafos says.

Order of Hanacha and Mechitzah Logic

What comes first, again, in ื”ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, in abstract thinking: the fact that it's not not a mechitza, or the fact that it becomes a mechitza? There's two, three things, three stages: There's no mechitza, and then there's a stage where there is not no mechitza, and then there is a stage where there is a mechitza. Right? What comes first? ื‘ืคื•ืขืœ, it comes together. When it becomes a ืžื—ื™ืฆื”, two things happen at the same time: Now that there is a ืžื—ื™ืฆื”, it's not not a ืžื—ื™ืฆื”, and it is a ืžื—ื™ืฆื”. But in ื”ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, the positive part is a step further. In ื”ื’ื™ื•ืŸ, first comes it's not not a ืžื—ื™ืฆื”, then it's a ืžื—ื™ืฆื”. And that's why, and that makes, then the Tosafot makes sense. We're talking about two things: You're throwing this, and it became the ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. How did it become a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“? Through landing. For that, you don't have to have the fact that it actually landed, it should not be considered not landing, and that's enough. And then, to be ื—ื™ื™ื‘, you have to have it landing. That comes later. So according to Tosafot, it became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, then you did the ื”ื ื—ื”. It became a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“ through landing, but not through the real landing, through the ืฉืœื™ืœื” ื“ื™ืงื. ื•ืžืžื™ืœื, what comes out, that it's ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, through ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ืจื‘ื™ื, to a ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“, because your ื”ื ื—ื” of ื—ื™ื•ื‘ came after it became ืจืฉื•ืช ื”ื™ื—ื™ื“. But that all goes ืœืฉื™ื˜ืชื of Tosafot, that the ื”ื ื—ื” is a ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™ื“ื™ืงืข ื”ื ื—ื”. If you'd learn like the Tosafot Yeshanim or Rashi, that even the ื”ื ื—ื” is not a ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™ื“ื™ืงืข ื”ื ื—ื”, then what's the ื—ื™ืœื•ืง between the ื”ื ื—ื” to make it a ืจืฉื•ืช, and the ื”ื ื—ื” for the ืื™ืกื•ืจ ื”ื•ืฆืื”? They're both the same. So why would we consider this that the ื”ื ื—ื” of the ืื™ืกื•ืจ came after it became a ืจืฉื•ืช through the ื”ื ื—ื”? So Rashi can't learn like that. But Tosafot goes ืœืฉื™ื˜ืชื. Tosafot does learn like that. But it all fits to how you learn the ืคืฉื˜ in ื”ื ื—ื”, whether it's ื”ื ื—ื” ื—ื™ื•ื‘ื™ืช, or a ื”ื ื—ื” ืฉืœื™ืœื™ืช that you take away the chesaron if you don't have it. You want today's shiur? Yeah, I wanted all, but I'll take what I can get. Can't believe I, can't believe that I started this and went for one to three and
